A taxi driver has been robbed at knifepoint.
The driver picked up two men from Victoria Avenue, Southend, just before 1am this morning, September 11.
The men initially wanted a ride to Lovelace Gardens, before asking the driver to pull up into Wesley Road, where one of the men threatened the driver with a knife.
The men were given some loose change and left in the direction of Stanley Road on foot.
Both men were described as being white. One had dark hair and another had light hair.
If you were in the area at the time, or have any CCTV or dash cam footage available to view, please call Southend CID on 101 quoting incident number 42 of 11/09.
